Understanding Abortion Costs and Financial Assistance in Illinois
When facing an unplanned pregnancy, concerns about cost should never stand between you and the care you need. At Serenity Choice Health in Matteson, Illinois, we believe that every person deserves access to safe, confidential abortion services regardless of their financial situation.
This guide provides clear, transparent information about abortion costs, payment options, insurance coverage, and financial assistance programs available to patients in Illinois and beyond.
Why Transparent Pricing Matters
Healthcare decisions are stressful enough without worrying about hidden fees or surprise bills. At Serenity Choice Health, we are committed to honesty and clarity in all aspects of your care, including pricing. You deserve to know exactly what to expect financially before your appointment, so you can make informed decisions with confidence.
Our approach is simple: straightforward pricing with absolutely no hidden fees. The price we quote is the price you pay.
Abortion Pill Costs
Medication abortion, commonly called the abortion pill, is often the most affordable option for early pregnancy termination. At Serenity Choice Health, our complete medication abortion package includes:
-
Confidential consultation with a licensed provider
-
FDA-approved mifepristone and misoprostol
-
Discreet shipping (for telehealth patients)
-
Follow-up pregnancy test
-
Ongoing provider support throughout the process
The total cost for this comprehensive package is a flat rate of $400. There are no additional charges, no surprise fees, and no hidden costs.
For those considering this option, you can order the abortion pill online through our secure platform.
Telehealth Abortion Costs
Our telehealth abortion services offer the same comprehensive care with the added convenience of consulting with a provider from home. The cost remains the same $400 flat rate, which includes:
-
Virtual consultation via secure video or phone
-
FDA-approved medications shipped discreetly to your door
-
Follow-up pregnancy test
-
Unlimited access to your provider for questions and support
Telehealth is an excellent option for patients in Illinois and New York who prefer not to travel to a clinic. You can schedule a virtual abortion consultation to get started.
In-Clinic Abortion Costs
In-clinic abortion services may vary in cost depending on the type of procedure and how far along the pregnancy is. Our in-clinic options include:
-
In-Clinic Medication Abortion: Taking the first abortion pill under medical supervision at our Matteson clinic
-
Procedural Abortion (Aspiration Abortion): A quick 5-10 minute procedure performed by a licensed provider
Pricing for in-clinic services is transparent and provided upfront during your consultation. We never want cost to be a barrier, which is why we offer multiple payment options and financial assistance for those who qualify. You can book an in-person appointment to discuss pricing specific to your situation.
